Who Needs A Grown-Up Cake?

It's been too long, folks! I know! Let's just say that between moving and AT&T internet service having wonderful customer service...blogging has been difficult to get around to. BUT good news is that I'm back and Starbucks will be seeing much less of me. Okay, well, I can't lie. They'll still see a lot of me but at least now I don't need to use their internet! Just their caffeine...

Today's post is inspired by my birthday. Who doesn't love birthday cake? Lord knows I do! It's my favorite part of any birthday! Wedding cake on the other hand...it's got quite a stigma attached. More and more couples are opting to nix it all together and go with candy stations, chocolate fountains or late night cookie stations. This saddens me because I really do love the idea of having a cake to cut at your reception. The pictures alone are worth it, in my opinion, and you'll probably make the parents happy with the tradition. Parents don't do well with change...but I digress...

I believe I've found a solution...FUNFETTI! Imagine if you will a three tiered white cake filled with funfetti morsels, covered in Duncan Hines frosting and sprinkles. It's a little redneck. I know. I plead the I-Grew-Up-In-Mississippi excuse. It doesn't come out too often but every once in a while...

But seriously, who can resist that? Definitely not your wedding coordinator. And I'm guessing not the rest of your guests, either.

Anywho, glad to be back, lovlies! xoxo
